Why Pray? - John 3:27

When Trouble Knocks at your Door

• Prayer is the gracious opportunity to speak directly to God
• We direct our communication to God the Father
• God the Son, Jesus is our connector, priest, mediator
• The Spirit helps us pray as inferior humans
• We feel good when we pray
• We feel guilty when we are negligent
• Prayer does not happen naturally
• Prayer is a learned response and discipline

Why pray?

• Three things prompt us to pray:
• we share our needs
• we request our desires
• we express our love and worship
• For many of us, the most intense times of prayer that we have experienced have come because of trouble

"The Good Life"

• God wants us to experience "the good life." (John 15: 4-7)
• How do we access this life-source?
• We abide in Jesus.
• But what does that mean?  In REAL Life?
• We must choose to stay connected to Jesus.
• We must choose to abandon the substitutes.
• What does this look like in a moment of crisis?
• Pay attention to your hunger and the substitutes that you are being offered.
• Cry out to Jesus... first.. for satisfaction
• Ask Jesus what to do next -- John 15:7
